Bangaram is a reporter at a news channel who dreams of getting into an international news channel of BBC. To fulfill his dream, he needs Peddi Reddy's signature, but gets entangled with his daughters Sandhya and Vindhya. Later, Bhooma Reddy wins over Peddi's heart and convinces him to marry Sandhya to his brother, but Sandhya already has her own love story with Vinay. Bangaram, feeling guilty about foiling Sandhya's escape plan and the mean looks from Vindhya, decides to help her by taking her to the city. Later, Vinay also loses contact with them due to confusion caused by a bomb blast. Bangaram finds Vinay with the help of a taxi driver and his company. Bhooma and his goons chase them, but each time, Bangaram saves Sandhya and Vinay. Unable to capture Sandhya, Bhooma kidnaps Vindhya and blackmails Bangaram that his brother will marry her if Sandhya is not returned. Bangaram goes to Bhooma, kills him and his henchmen, and saves Vindhya. In the end, it is revealed that Bangaram ultimately finds his own love during return train journey.
